Materials Data on YO3 by Materials Project

YO3 is Cementite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O atoms. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.48 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Y atoms. In the second O site, O is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Y atoms.

An A- and B-Site Substitutional Study of SrFeO3−δ Perovskites for Solar Thermochemical Air Separation

An A‑ and B‑site substitutional study of SrFeO3−δ perovskites (A’xA1−xB’yB1−yO3−δ, where A = Sr and B = Fe) was performed for a two‑step solar thermochemical air separation cycle. The cycle steps encompass (1) the thermal reduction of A’xSr1−xB’yFe1−yO3−δ driven by concentrated solar irradiation and (2) the oxidation of A’xSr1−xB’yFe1−yO3−δ in air to remove O2, leaving N2. The oxidized A’xSr1−xB’yFe1−yO3−δ is recycled back to the first step to complete the cycle, resulting in the separation of N2 from air and concentrated solar irradiation. A-site substitution fractions between 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2 were examined for A’ = Ba, Ca, and La. B-site substitution fractions between 0 ≤ y ≤ 0.2 were examined for B’ = Cr, Cu, Co, and Mn. Samples were prepared with a modified Pechini method and characterized with X-ray diffractometry. The mass changes and deviations from stoichiometry were evaluated with thermogravimetry in three screenings with temperature- and O2 pressure-swings between 573 and 1473 K and 20% O2/Ar and 100% Ar at 1 bar, respectively. A’ = Ba or La and B’ = Co resulted in the most improved redox capacities amongst temperature- and O2 pressure-swing experiments.

Materials Data on YAgO3 by Materials Project

AgYO3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of one silver molecule and one YO3 framework. In the YO3 framework, Y3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form corner-sharing YO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Y–O bond lengths are 2.21 Å. O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Y3+ atoms.

Ru-promoted perovskites as effective redox catalysts for CO2 splitting and methane partial oxidation in a cyclic redox scheme

The current study reports AxA’1-xByB’1-yO3- perovskite redox catalysts (RCs) for CO2-splitting and methane partial oxidation (POx) in a cyclic redox scheme. Strontium (Sr) and iron (Fe) were chosen as A and B site elements with A’ being lanthanum (La), samarium (Sm) or yttrium (Y), and B’ being manganese (Mn), or titanium (Ti) to tailor their equilibrium oxygen partial pressures (P_(O_2 ) s) for CO2-splitting and methane partial oxidation. DFT calculations were performed for predictive optimization of the oxide materials whereas experimental investigation confirmed the DFT predicted redox performance. The redox kinetics of the RCs improved significantly by 1 wt.% ruthenium (Ru) impregnation without affecting their redox thermodynamics. Ru impregnated LaFe0.375Mn0.625O3 (A=0, A’=La, B=Mn, and B’=0) was the most promising RC in terms of its superior redox performance (CH4/CO2 conversion >90% and CO selectivity~ 95%) at 800oC. Long-term redox testing over Ru impregnated LaFe0.375Mn0.625O3 indicated stable performance during the first 30 cycles following with a ~25% decrease in the activity during the last 70 cycles. Air treatment was effective to reactivate the redox catalyst. Detailed characterizations revealed the underlying mechanism for redox catalyst deactivation and reactivation. Furthermore, this study not only validated a DFT guided mixed oxide design strategy for CO2 utilization but also provides potentially effective approaches to enhance redox kinetics as well as long-term redox catalyst performance.
